(MCRC MB-PhD) Targeting the leukaemic niche: does macrophage crosstalk sustain TP53-mutant acute erythroid leukaemia?

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
  Research Group: Division of Cancer Sciences
Blood cancers arise from mutations in genes controlling normal stem cell development, but cancer cells do not grow in isolation — they are supported by the normal cells that surround them. Read more

How cells sense their environment to build an organ: adhesion proteins in kidney development

The University of Manchester
Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine
  Research Group: Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine
Every organ in our body is built by cells that constantly sense and respond to their surroundings. Cells attach to the extracellular matrix (ECM), the network of proteins that surrounds them, through specialised adhesion sites that link the outside of the cell to its internal cytoskeleton.
